Background: Goal directed therapy (GDT) is able to improve mortality and reduce complications in selected high-risk patients undergoing major surgery. The aim of this study is to compare two different strategies of perioperative hemodynamic optimization: one based on optimization of preload using dynamic parameters of fluid-responsiveness and the other one based on estimated oxygen extraction rate (OER) as target of hemodynamic manipulation.
Methods: This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial.
Article Synopsis
- The study examined the continuous treatment of urban wastewater, focusing on nitrite processes and their impact on nitrogen emissions.
- Researchers quantified nitrogen mass balance and calculated the emission factor for nitrogen oxide (NO), discovering that increasing nitritation and denitritation rates can significantly reduce NO emissions by 78% and 93%, respectively.
- The anoxic phase was crucial in dinitrogen oxide production, with heightened NO emissions occurring under low denitritation conditions, and a strong correlation was found between free ammonia levels and nitritation rates, indicating potential shifts in bacterial communities.
The industrial processes require large quantities of water. The presence of discharges results not only in significant environmental impact but implies wastage of water resources. This problem could be solved treating and reusing the produced wastewaters and applying the new zero liquid discharge approach.
